Problems with iPod touch 5G - Artwork and TV shows don't show up

I've been having some problems with my recently acquired iPod touch 5G. When I change album art on iTunes for music or videos it either won't change the art on my iPod or no artwork will show up at all (just the default grey music note or TV).
When I change the Sort field to make my iPod sort albums chronologically instead of alphabetically, it will work until I've plugged my iPod into the computer a few times and then it will go back to sorting alphabetically (even though in the Get Info on iTunes it still says it's sorted by year).
Lastly, when I change a downloaded video from a Movie to a TV Show it will rarely show up in TV Shows on my iPod, the file can't even be found by searching.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Problems with Ipod Touch

Problems with iPod Touch.
Hi, I bought an ipod touch in Colombia a couple of months ago but lost the invoice, I tried using it but everytime I connect the iPod to the computer, it restarts over and over again, I've tried all the recommendations show in the Apple support site, but no method has proved the question is, I can take this ipod to a Mac store in the U.S. for repair or change.
I live in Venezuela, there is some Apple store in my country where I can take it.
Thanks in advance for your quick response

You should be able to go to the USA for warrantee service. If you purchased at an Apple store you should be able to go to your account in iTunes and see the purchase. I am confused by your statement:
"I live in Venezuela, there is some Apple store in my country where I can take it."
If you go to the Venezuela apple website you can see if/where there are Apple stores.

Problem with iPod Touch and Nissan Car Interface

I have an '09 Nissan Murano with the built in iPod interface. Previous to upgrading to the 3.0 update, the iPod touch and car got along great and everything worked well with the car being able to control the ipod and play music with only the dock connection (not needing to use the headphone jack). However, since the 3.0 update, the car will no longer see the iPod. The iPod shows the Connected to Accessory screen (as it did in the past) however every few seconds, the iPod will flash a quick screen of the iPods normal music screen, then go back to the Connected to Accessory screen. The car just says iPod Not Connected.
Like I said, it worked perfect before I upgraded to 3.0, and to further that, my brother has his touch still on 2.0 software, and it works fine, leading me to be sure that its a problem with the 3.0 update and not the car. I've seen posts like this with other vehicles, but no one seems to have an answer. Wondering who else is having problems like this and if there is ANY solution (besides rolling back my software).
The fact that an update disables iPod branded interfaces seems ridiculous to me. Thanks for any help!

I recently purchased an infiniti FX35 with the ipod integration. After visiting the local apple store "Genius Bar" and speaking on the phone with an "apple expert"; neither the genius bar or the apple expert heard of such an integration option in new cars being sold. They wanted more information from me about how it work rather than them assisting me with my problem.
Anyway, after alot of experimenting I got my ipod touch 2G running firmware 3.1 to work somewhat consistently.
Turn off wi-fi on the touch, power off then back on, go the ipod menu and select playlist. Attach the touch to the infiniti supplied cable through the dock connector. Select the ipod option from dash board. Playlist, songs, artists, etc will appear on the dash display and begin playing.

Unable to home share with iPod Touch (4th Gen) and iPad 2

Since I have upgraded to iTunes 11 I am unable to home share my HD movies to both my iPod Touch (4th Gen) and my iPad 2
I was able to home share all my HD movies before iTunes 11.
I know that the iPad 2 and 4th Gen iPod Touch can only support 720p, but by streaming/home sharing that was the work around.
But again, once I upgraded to iTunes 11... when I go on my iPad or iPod Touch I can no longer see them in my shared library.
Here is the crazy part though... if I go downstairs and get on my 2nd gen AppleTV... I can see all my movies in my shared library.
DO YOU THINK IT IS iOS 6.0.1 ????

There are no setting on the iPod. Unlike the iPad wich morrors the iPad display, TV out on an iPod only displays TV out on apps that support TV out. The Video app is one such app.
Is that you problem?
Otherwise:
Try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

Problems with iPod Touch- YouTube and Push Notifications

After installing iOS4 on my 64gb iPod Touch I've noticed I cannot view YouTube videos and push notifications do not work.
The YouTube app launches, however if I try to search or play a video a pop up will read "Cannot connect to YouTube". If I go to YouTube's newly redesigned mobile site they work fine.
Although all my settings are the same as they have ever been, push notifications do not work. When launching any app with push notification support it always states "Connect to iTunes to use push notifications". I've done this, but nothing works.
For the record, I've never jailbroken or in any other way altered my device. I've tried performing a hard reset with no success, as well as letting the battery drain completely and shutting off before recharging.
Thanks for any help.

Problem with Ipod Touch and new software (2.2.1)

After upgrading to the 2.2.1 I have been unable to listen to it using my car stereo. It will only recognize my ipod sometimes and when it does a majority of the time there will be no sound at all. On my car stereo it shows my playlists and everything but no sound. I never once had a problem with my ipod or stereo until I did this upgrade. I tried switching out the usb cord but that did not help. I then restored my Ipod. I also tried to wipe out the battery completely and then charge (heard on a different message board that that could possibly help). Still having the problem though. I have an Ipod touch and a Pioneer stereo with the USB cable hook up.

yeah i'm having the same problem i have a pioneer navigation system and it will not play my ipod touch after upgrading to 2.2 i called apple to try to find a way to downgrade and they never gave me an answer

Sync Problem with iPod Touch and Apple TV relating to iPhoto

I have recently recovered from a crash and has to restore everything from my time machine.
I have an iPod touch that syncs with my itunes and therefore with my iPhoto.
Same thing with my Apple TV syncing via itunes with my iPhoto.
After the restore. I have this message:" itunes cannot sync photos to the Apple TV because of a problem on your computer. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation.
Previously I got the same message when syncing iPod touch with iPhoto. Then I opened iPhoto package content and remove the iPod Photo cache. that solves my iPod touch sync problem.
How can I sync with Apple TV again?

I believe you need to reset the Sync services data. Assuming your data on the Mac is correct (or correctable), try this:
1. If it is easy enough to do, clean up iCal. There are AppleScripts and other tools on the Internet to do this.
2. Save a copy of you calendar. Just in case. (File, Back up iCal...)
3. Exit iCal.
4. Start iSync.
5. Preferences, Reset Sync History. (If it is greyed out, wait a few minutes.)
6. Quit iSync.
7. Start iTunes and plug in your iPod.
8. Select your iPod and go to the Info tab.
9. Make sure you have the correct Calendars selected. At the bottom, under Advanced, under Replace information on this iPod, select Calendars.
10. Sync.
That should do it.
Normally, the fiddling with iSync should clear things up, so you can try just that, and syncing, but since your have a messed up situation, I'd go through all these steps once.

WRT54GC Wireless router problem with iPod touch and Ipad

Hi
I have a WRT54GC wireless router and both my ipod touch and ipad can connect to the network. They can both use the internet for like one minute and then the internet becomes very slow, and dies. Network connections are lost and I'm getting messages like 'can't connect to itunes' or 'lost connection with youtube'. The wireless router works fine for the laptops in the house (all windows). In the house where I live in the week (closer to my school) there is another router and i don't have the problem over there, also no problem to connect to my schools wireless network... So I think it's a combination problem of apple products and that router. I've tried a lot, like resetting network configuration, updating firmware, changing from wpa to wep1,... Anyone an idea?
Thank you
Bert

oh and the connection to the router isn't lost.
Thank you

Problem with Ipod Touch 8gb and Monster Beats Solo HD

Apple Ipod o guys , i bought an Ipod Touch there in this january , and 2 weeks later , when i got back to Brazil , my cousin did me the favor to crack my screen pretty good . So now , im wondering ,what can i do to fix it ,because the Apple Support here said that they would only give me a discount to buy a new one ( and its a REALLY cheap discount ) , and if i choose to fix it from a unauthorized apple store , it would cost something like 300 dollars or so . ( Thats even more than i paid for the entire thing ) . So , as you can see , my country cant actually help me out on this one . Do you guys have any advice for what i could do ?
P.S. : I paid like 20 bucks for a special kind of insurance . Not sure if it would do me any good now .
Monster Beats : So ...as a lot of people , i think the headphones are great . But i really thing they are "popped " ( not sure whats the english term tho ) , i can still hear music and stuff but sometimes some kind of noise ( very annoying btw ) starts to come out , mostly when in low pitch notes ( again , not sure whats the english term lol ) like in hip hop songs and stuff .. Is there anything i can do for this one too ?
Well , thats it guys , i hope you guys could understand my bad english ( sorry if you guys didn't ) . Any help would be deeply aprecciated .
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello NashOwnz,
I was disappointed to read about the problem with your iPod! If you have Geek Squad Black Tie Protection, Geek Squad can offer you service for the iPod, but it will need to be brought to a Best Buy store. Knowing that you're in Brazil, I realize that complicates matters.
For support with your headphones, please visit the Monster Beats website. I hope this helps.

How soon are they going to fix the problems with iPod Touch IOS 6?

I'm using iPod Touch 4G with IOS 6. I didnt noticed the crashes problems until now. I am having a problem with IOS 6. I've read about the App store problem with crashes that everybody complaining about somewhere in community forum. But there are more problems with IOS 6. I noticed that my iPod touch downloading take FOREVER when I'm using WiFi. I had no problem downloading or using apps with IOS 5 with WiFi and running FASTER THAN IOS 6 but now with IOS 6 it TAKES FOREVER to downloading and apps crashing and running VERY SLOW. I noticed that some my apps are crashing too. When I use Twitter for a while and then it crashed again and again. What is going on? I know there is a bug but why arent they fix the problem sooner. now it have been 7 days that should solve the problem by now. why is taking sooooo long? PLEASE FIX THE PROBLEM ASAP.
Thank you,
SsnGrysn

I'm having exactly the same problem , most apps I go into start to crash , starting to get really annoyed now , I hope they fix this soon kuz I feel like throwing my ipod touch at a wall if it crashes again

IOS4 Problems with iPod Touch 2nd Gen

Hello!
Since installing the iOS4 in my iPod 2nd Gen I had many problems, the OS makes the iPod slower, the auto-lock function doesn't work, once I tell it to auto-lock after 1 minute, it doesn't, it just stays on all day, I have to do it several times and lock it manually so it stays like that.
I have also had problems with syncing music, since it doesn't play the songs, but is not a constant thing, some days are one songs, some another and is not always the same song.
Many Apps are also failing but that goes to the App developer.
< Edited by Host >

That is all fine and good except Apple pushed it 2nd gen owners as a supposed upgrade. Had we been given a disclaimer stating that it was going to half break most of our apps, we naturally would have declined the upgrade.
For the record, G2 touches did not get multitasking. All we got Folders and access to ibooks, along with a few minor tweaks, here and there. There is absolutely no excuse for how terribly slow ibooks renders PDFs, considering Looksee did a much faster and better job of it on my G1 touch.
All I really cared about was folders. It would be nice if Apple could tweak IOS4 for G2 ipods to allow for folders without decimating our Ram. If they can't then give us a convenient way to get back to an OS that actually works properly.

Very, very strange problem with iPod Touch. Won't play in my car.

I'd understand if I just plugged my iPod Touch into my car and it didn't work. That could mean it's simply not compatiable with my head unit, it could mean the head unit isn't up to date enough for it. However, the first couple of times I plugged my iPod in, it worked perfectly. It charged the iPod, loaded playlists and played the songs without any problems. But suddenly, it has stopped charging and playing songs. It won't even load the iPod anymore. On the head unit it just says it's searching for the iPod, but it never finds it. On the iPod it says it can't be charged on this device.
I have an Alpine head unit and a 3rd generation 64GB iPod Touch. I really don't understand why it would start saying it can't be charged on the device, when I've charged and played songs on it before. I already know it can work on the head unit.

Unless I'm missing something Chris, I would think it very important if the Touch was charging from the very beginning. Of course if the Touch was fully charged when you first tried it then the songs would play.
Are you saying that your Touch appears to be playing tracks fine and has a charged battery, it's just that the sound isn't being played through the Alpine? Does it connect via the headphone socket of the Touch? If so, then plug some earphones in to see if any sound is coming out. If it is then it's either the cable connection to the Alpine (assuming it isn't Bluetooth as I'm not familiar with you Alpine or the Touch version you have) or the Alpine head unit itself.
You can very easily determine if the Touch is working and thereby eliminate that as being the problem.
Finally, I'm surprised you don't appear to think that it's important your Touch is being charged as obviously if it's not then after a while it will stop!

Anybody else having problem with iPOD TOUCH ios4.3.3. deleting the special speakers menu on the Zeppelin Air ?

The latest ios firmware update for the iPOD TOUCH (4.3.3.) has accidently removed the special speakers menu from the B&W Zeppelin Air.
How can this problem be reported to Apple to fix it ??????????????????

I recently purchased an infiniti FX35 with the ipod integration. After visiting the local apple store "Genius Bar" and speaking on the phone with an "apple expert"; neither the genius bar or the apple expert heard of such an integration option in new cars being sold. They wanted more information from me about how it work rather than them assisting me with my problem.
Anyway, after alot of experimenting I got my ipod touch 2G running firmware 3.1 to work somewhat consistently.
Turn off wi-fi on the touch, power off then back on, go the ipod menu and select playlist. Attach the touch to the infiniti supplied cable through the dock connector. Select the ipod option from dash board. Playlist, songs, artists, etc will appear on the dash display and begin playing.

On nextday try to charge and turned on, but this time the ipod isn't turned on. Even can't start recovery or dfu mode.
